YESSIRRRRRRRR‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

When nonsense like this happens within the church it’s no wonder why people don’t take Christianity seriously…

If you’re running from God, you will not like what you are ultimately running to…

From Death To Life

“And you were dead in your trespasses and sins in which you previously walked according to the ways of this world, according to the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit now working in the disobedient. We too all previously lived among them in our fleshly desires, carrying out the inclinations of our flesh and thoughts, and we were by nature children under wrath as the others were also.” - Eph 2:1–3.

If we are reading this passage faithfully, our souls should shiver once we realize who we truly are by nature. It’s common to assume that we are all “good people” compared to others. But when compared to a perfect Holy Being, we come to realize that we all fall short and are, by nature, children of wrath.

By nature, our hearts are far from God. Jesus says “For from the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual immoralities, thefts, false testimonies, slander - Mt 15:19. On your “brightest” day you’re still guilty of having an impure evil heart that opposes the Living God. Because we are by nature “children of wrath” if we were to die in our fallen state we would be doomed to endure the wrath of God for eternity. Meaning that we are entirely hopeless and doomed to save ourselves destined to a place “where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.” - Mk 9:48.

“But God, who is rich in mercy, because of the great love that he had for us, made us alive with Christ even though we were dead in trespasses. You are saved by grace!” - Eph 2:4–5.

“But God” is the most fascinating phrase to be read in all of Scripture. It is not us, “but God,” who is merciful to us. It was not us, “but God,” who loved us. It was not our good works, Bible reading, charity giving, or church attendance that made us alive, but God, through His Son Jesus Christ, His life, death, burial, and resurrection, saved us! God is not obligated to save us, but God chose not to leave us in the pit.

Do you understand the miracle that has taken place? If you’re reading this, please do not ignore the Good News being revealed to you. Don’t harden your heart. Let the love of God be poured into your heart by receiving Christ and the gift of the Holy Spirit.
